  1. Identify Vulnerability: In apps/watchparty/views.py, the RoomViewSet inherits from viewsets.ModelViewSet which allows any authenticated user to update or delete any room because there is no authorization check. This is an IDOR vulnerability.
  2. Implement Fix: Create a custom permission class IsHostOrReadOnly (or similar logic directly in the view) to enforce that only the host of a room can modify or delete it. Alternatively, override perform_update and perform_destroy to raise PermissionDenied if request.user != instance.host.
  3. Write/Run Tests: Run the existing test suite (using USE_SQLITE=True pytest). Add a small test if necessary.
  4. Pre-commit: Complete the required pre-commit checks.
  5. Submit: Create the PR for Sentinel.
